Filing O1A with single member LLC + Board Member

I have 3 LOAs from legitimate companies that wish to hire me via my LLC.

Pls help me with these:

  • If I file O1A with my single-member LLC as the petitioner, then do I have to be on my own payroll?
  • Do I have to have a company bank account to show that I have this money in there to pay myself?
  • Should these companies pay me via my company bank account, or can they pay me directly into my own bank account? (A single-member LLC is, anyway, a disregarded entity for tax purposes)
  • Does it matter if my various contracting gigs are W2, W9, or 1099 employment?
  • If I get hired full-time at another company, I plan to have them hire me via my LLC and also continue my other contractual gigs, so there is minimal amendment required (as long as they are all in the same field). I believe that each of my employers who hire me either as a contractor or employee has to mention hiring my company on the contract (C2C). Any thoughts?
  • Is anyone willing to review my employment contract with myself and my board member being assigned for regulatory supervision?
  • How deeply has USCIS scrutinized such structures?

O1A LLC Employer Structure

Has anyone here applied for an O1A with their single-member-owned LLC as the petitioner?

Of course, while having a board member as your signatory/ advisor. But no equity arrangement.

This is considering that the beneficiary has letters of intent stating that they are hiring the LLC with the beneficiary as principal for projects in the stated field of endeavour.

What is a precedent or best practice for this situation?

Experience with Legal OS & Joseph Asir

Hey does anyone here have experience with YC funded startup LegalOS or attorney Joseph Asir?

The promise of the firm is that they are super fast due to being AI native but I’ve found them to be slower than the other law firms I’ve spoken with.

O1A visa agent friend + amendments

Anyone here who’s applied to O1A with agent route & the agent being their US citizen friend?

Did you file an amendment each time there was a new employer/ material change to your original petition?
